Because Fandoms Were Made To Be Mixed

Apr. 23rd, 2017

Spent most of the day out and about with the parents, looking at various open houses. We saw five -- first was just too small; second was really nice but at the edge of a bad neighborhood, and Dad thinks it'll go for more than we can afford; third was too small and stank of cigarette smoke (the nicotine stains on the walls were something else); the fourth was set up weird (with a diagonal fireplace/chimney running through the place) and the upstairs was tiny; the fifth was again just too small. *sigh* So yeah, we're starting afresh on this house-hunting thing, I'm afraid. And we didn't even get a great lunch out of it -- we stopped at a place called "Tommy's" before heading home. I got a chicken parm sandwich, which was acceptable, but Dad's meatball sandwich had like two meatballs in it, and Mom's broccoli pie was awfully flat. I mean, edible, but geez, no wonder the place was dead when we walked in. *sigh*

Other things that have happened today:

-->Wrote some more on "Fixing You" -- Barkis has shown up to be an utter bastard! Have managed to work in a joke from "Fraiser" that I quite like regarding "manly throaty wails" XD

-->Played Sims 4 -- Jennifer has joined the Renegades club! Which is headed up by a CHILD. Not even joking. o.O Jennifer may be taking over this club at some point in the future, because WTF Sims 4. Well, it gives her good opportunities to prank, at least. Marty also got promoted, and is now officially in the Musician career track as a Jingle Jammer. And he got bit by a vampire AGAIN. XD This time by Lilith Vatore, who I thought was supposed to be one of the good ones? Poor Marty -- he just must be delicious. XD

-->Watched Linkara review Athena #3 -- confusing and dull comic remains confusing and dull. At least there are less ass shots this time around. Poor Linkara, the stuff he has to tackle some days...

-->Watched the first two sets of Helloween's new Obscure II LP! (Second set went up this afternoon; I couldn't resist.) Already proving to be a worthy sequel to the original, in that it is hilarious b-movie so-bad-it's-good horror fun. :D Very much looking forward to how this one will go!

-->And I just did my two tumblr queues, which is a good thing.

And now I REALLY need to get to bed -- ugh, why is staying up so late so easy for me even on work nights? *sigh* One of these days, I will learn proper time management. G'night all!
